Toys

The Pettis County Community Santa is gearing up to bring families in Pettis County joy this holiday season.

Quit playing with your food and play with this toy I bought you!

The Community Santa Campaign is accepting applications until December 2nd.

Now hold on, I know what you're thinking.  "Behka, are you insane? I don't want to get any tricks this Halloween!" Well, hold your horses there, bucko.

There's a new Marvel movie on the horizon, so that means there are also new Funko collectibles looming ahead as well. It's a foregone conclusion at this point that if a thing exists, it will have a Funko toy of some sort. I can't think of a single other solitary company that provides as many figures and bobbleheads for many disparate properties. Funko's hands are literally in everything. Now, you can count on them bringing you all the Doctor Strange goodies you can possibly handle.

Remember how so many Star Wars fans lost their minds when we first saw Kylo Ren’s bizarre hilted lightsaber in the trailer for Star Wars: Episode 7? Well, they’re about to lose ‘em all over again. Hasbro is introducing a new line of toys that will allow children (and their parents) to customize their own Jedi weapons. If you should a little hilt was crazy, then you probably aren’t prepared for what people will soon be able to create in their homes.

When we outgrow our toys, we tend to shove them into a drawer and forget about them. But not everyone does that.

Life isn't all fun and games, but maybe it should be.

Remember Madballs and Popples? If you, like us, managed to successfully block out most of your childhood, the answer is a resounding "no"!

Andre Cassagnes, the man responsible for inventing the venerable Etch A Sketch, a toy that inspired countless children ever since it was introduced in 1960, has died at age 86 in France.
